The existing commit-recovery path blocked stories on the 2nd consecutive
exit-without-commit. For long sweep refactors (e.g. story 997, the typed
retries payload migration), claude-code's session-length boundary
naturally terminates the coder mid-sweep before it can commit — even
though substantial file-edit progress is being made each session. The
old cap-of-1 misclassified normal mid-flight progress as 'agent declined
to commit'.
New behaviour:
- Each commit-recovery respawn captures a worktree-diff byte-length
fingerprint (git diff master | wc -c).
- If the fingerprint differs from the previous attempt the agent made
file-edit progress, the no-progress counter resets to 1.
- If the fingerprint is byte-identical (no new edits between exits),
increment the no-progress counter.
- Block only when the counter reaches NO_PROGRESS_CAP (3) — i.e. three
consecutive respawns where the agent did literally nothing.
Adds ContentKey::CommitRecoveryDiffFingerprint to store the prior
fingerprint. Updates the existing block-test to reflect the new cap
semantics; existing 'first respawn issued' test continues to pass.
All 2935 tests pass.
